RichRod Presser Tweets = Actual News

For the non-Tweeps among us.

  •  At RR presser. Says they will start paperwork on med redshirt for D Gardner
  •  RR said Jeremy Gallon will play the role of Miss St's qb in practice.
  •  RR hopes to sign 19-20 says 2-4 could enroll early. "we feel good about our recruiting class"
  •  RR: kick competition wide open. Doesn't anticipate anyone not making trip/academics
  •  Rodriguez says all UM players out for season out for bowl. Stonum Hemingway Denard all healthy and practicing

And some non-news:

  •  Michigan players screwing around pre-practice. Molk just passed incomplete to Denard. Devin Gardner great dance moves
  •  Michigan players getting ready at bowl practice Saturday

One more:

  •  Michigan practice: seven guys shaking Miss St cowbells in the ears of center and qb while practicing snapping

... is you can get a medical redshirt for a hangnail, so I don't think it has to do with his health... after all he was showing off his great dance moves, which could be difficult with a bad back.  I think they may just want to go live on the qb (or close to live), and they can be more aggresive on Gallon.

The reason gallon is simulating relf is due to his ability to execute the triple option. We haven't seen Denard do it this year and I imagine he has an issue executing the pitch. Msu uses this much like Illinois and gallon is the best option since he ran this offence at apopka as a QB.

he seems a bit short to be effective there even in practice... People were complaining about Denard and Forcier being too short for QB and they're both 6'... but isn't Gallon like 5'7'/5'8''' or something?

Seriously though, from BlueSeoul's game notes, Miss.St. doesn't throw from the pocket very much at all so height is much less of an issue. Having someone the same size is probably well down the list of priorities for scouting this offense. You need someone who can execute all of the options and make plays with his feet. Gallon ran this O effectively in HS. If you can get guys to Gallon, then you can get guys to Relf.

I love a hoppy ending!

Apparently you guys have no idea how practice works.   The reason Denard is not simulating Relf is bacause he is busy working on our offense not because he can't pitch the ball well..

 

The scout team simulates MSU's plays against the 1st and 2nd team defense.  The scout team is usually made up of walk ons and redshirt players or players that won't likely play.  Gallon will be playing but because of the unique skill set they thought it valuable enough to move him to the scout team for part of practice.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the reason why they're using Gallon is because I heard that he is actually adept at running the option. DG would be the better choice but can't for obvious reasons. On another note, 6'4 240?! Yikes. Does he have a stiff arm a la TP? God I hope not.
